The Triple offset valve or triple eccentric valve features a stem that is offset on both the X (1) and Y (2) axis of the butterfly valve's center-line. This produces a cam-like motion as the valve operates. The third offset (3) consists of an inclined conical profile machined into the valve sealing surface, allowing rotary engagement and disengagement of the seat and seal ring without interference. This triple offset eliminates all rubbing between the seat and seal ring during valve travel, reducing seat and seal wear and extending cycle life.
